Active clinical trials for "Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck"

This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of recombinant human EGF-rP64K/montanide ISA 51 vaccine (CIMAvax) and nivolumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer or squamous head and neck cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Vaccine therapy, such as CIMAvax vaccine may help slow down and stop tumor growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving CIMAvax vaccine together with nivolumab or pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer or squamous head and neck cancer.

A prospective, open-label, multi-cohort, non-randomized, multicenter Phase 2 study evaluating adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with TIL LN-144 (Lifileucel)/LN-145 in combination with checkpoint inhibitors or TIL LN-144 (Lifileucel)/LN-145/LN-145-S1 as a single agent therapy.

This is a first-in-human Phase 1/2, non-randomized, multi-centre, open-label clinical study designed to investigate safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary anti-tumour activity of [225Ac]-FPI-1434 (radioimmuno-therapeutic agent) in patients with solid tumours that demonstrate uptake of [111In]-FPI-1547 (radioimmuno-imaging agent), and to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of repeat doses of [225Ac]-FPI-1434 Injection in patients with solid tumours that demonstrate uptake of [111In]-FPI-1547 (radioimmuno-imaging agent).

This is a combination of 4 therapies, three of which are used to treat a single "target site" of your cancer (such as a lymph node or a single tumor), and the 4th is given directly into the blood stream (intravenous or "IV"). Radiation: The target site --lymph node or tumor (the one what will be injected) --will get two small treatments of radiation. Radiation is often times used to shrink and kill tumors in patients with certain types of lymphoma, breast cancer and head and neck cancer, however, the dose of radiation that you will receive --one dose on day one of the clinical trial and one dose on day two --is 10 to 20 time less radiation that you would receive for treatment of these cancers. Flt3L/CDX-301 is an immune cell growth factor, similar to white blood cell growth factors (Neupogen or Neulasta) or red blood cell growth factors (EPO or Epogen) that you may have received to help protect your blood cells previously. Flt3L causes your body to make more immune cells, specifically a type of immune cell called "dendritic cells". Poly-ICLC is an immune cell activating factor. Its function is to turn on the immune cells that have been brought to the tumor by Flt3L. Pembrolizumab is an antibody (a type of human protein) that is being tested to see if it will allow the body's immune system to kill your tumor cells. Pembrolizumab is approved for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with many different types of cancer including head and neck cancer. Pembrolizumab is not FDA approved to treat patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or metastatic breast cancer, as it has not been effective at treating these cancers when used alone. While most people do not have immediate side effects when this medication is given, it has the ability to cause side effects for.

The purpose of this single arm, phase Ⅱ clinical trail is to determine the safety and efficacy of paclitaxel (albumin bound),bleomycin and cisplatin or carboplatin in the treatment of recurrent Or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

This will be a Phase 1 Open-label, dose escalation and expansion study of MT-6402 (an Engineered Toxin Body (ETB)) in subjects with advanced solid cancer that expresses PD-L1

Background: Cancers in and around the mouth associated with human papilloma virus (HPV) are common. Two treatments (the drug pembrolizumab and the HPV vaccine PRGN-2009) have been shown to work well when used individually against these cancers. Researchers want to find out if they might work better when used together. Objective: To test pembrolizumab combined with PRGN-2009 in people with HPV-positive cancers in and around the mouth. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older newly diagnosed with HPV-positive cancers in and around the mouth. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have imaging scans. They may need to have a biopsy: A sample of tissue will be taken from the tumor. PRGN-2009 is given as an injection under the skin. Pembrolizumab is given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will have at least 3 clinic visits: At the first, they will receive both the drug and the vaccine; 15 days later, they will receive a second shot of the vaccine. At the third visit, about 1 week after the second, they will have follow-up tests. During these visits, participants will give samples of blood, urine, and saliva. Imaging scans and biopsies will be repeated. They will have tests of their heart function. Participants may opt to return for another follow-up visit about 1 month after their second dose of the vaccine. Participants will have follow-up contacts by phone 3 and 6 months after starting the study. The calls will continue once a year for 5 years.

Previous studies confirmed locally advanced oral/oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LA OSCC or OPSCC) patients with a pathological response had higher probability of survival in neoadjuvant settings. Several ongoing trials of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in head and neck cancer showed promising results. However, the optimal regimen remains unclear. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant therapy with anti-programmed cell death 1 monoclonal antibody Tislelizumab and chemotherapy, followed by surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy plus Tislelizumab in LA OSCC or OPSCC.

This is a single-arm, non-randomized pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of combination quad-shot palliative radiotherapy with immunotherapy for advanced/recurrent/metastatic head and neck cancer.

This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of peposertib when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with head and neck cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced) who cannot take cisplatin. Peposertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. This trial aims to see whether adding peposertib to radiation therapy is safe and works well in treating patients with head and neck cancer.
